6 performances only at the Fabulous Fox Theatre in Atlanta, Georgia

Prepare yourself for an event like you've never experienced before - big, the groundbreaking collaboration between Atlanta Ballet and Antwan 'Big Boi' Patton of OutKast. This innovative World Premiere fuses the visual experience of Atlanta's professional ballet company with hip-hop music, perfomed live by Atlanta's own Grammy Award-winning visionary. Choreographed by Lauri Stallings, joining Big Boi and Atlanta Ballet's exquisite dancers onstage will be talented voices such as Sleepy Brown, Janelle Monáe, Joi Gilliam, Scar, Big Rube, Rock D, and members of the musical group Konkrete. Don't miss out on this daring performance that is sure to tantalize the senses and leave you wanting more!

Audiences can expect to hear some of these artists', as well as Big Boi's, most popular hits:

- "Morris Brown" from the Idlewild soundtrack

- "Church" and "The Rooster" from Speakerboxxx

- "Bombs Over Baghdad" from Stankonia

- "Kryptonite" from Big Boi Presents...Got Purp? Vol. 2

- Sleepy Brown's "I Can't Wait" featuring Big Boi from his Mr. Brown album

- Janelle Monáe's "Sincerely Jane" and "Metropolis" from the newly released Metropolis album

At the 2007 BET Hip Hop Awards, Kanye West was a winner in two categories best live performance and hip-hop video. It was reported that after West got his trophy for best hip-hop video, he said he thought the video for UGK's "International Players," featuring OutKast, should have been chosen over his."I didn't deserve this award above them. They do instead of me," said West, who isn't typically known for being the non-arrogant type. But Big Boi of OutKast kept it completely 100 with West by giving him the award back saying, "You worked too hard for this. No, you deserve it."

Sounds quite different coming from the man that let the world know how Bush really feels about us, and the man that'll more than let you know when the award "givers" are wrong and Kanye is right! Either way, it's a definite upgrade...his fiance must be proud! Ok, everybody's proud!!!
